Scaffolding tasks to support pupil learning
Integrating scaffolding from the ‘5‑a-day’ into classroom approaches to enhance learning for pupils with SEN.
Questions for reflection
- How do you ensure teachers have a holistic understanding of pupils’ needs?
- How does the teacher use the pupil profiles to support teaching and learning in the classroom?
- An important feature of scaffolding is carefully ‘taking it down again’ to support greater independence. How might the teacher in this clip reduce the scaffolding later in the learning sequence?
- How could you build professional development around the ‘5‑a-day’ strategies?
